(Belvedere, CA)- This weekend, the 3rd running of the California
Offshore Race Week will start the first of the three leg California
Offshore Race Week. The Spinnaker Cup, an 88nm sprint from San
Francisco to Monterey departs May 26. Then, boats will embark on Monday
May 28th for the 204nm gear busting Big Sur Tour, a.k.a. Coastal Cup
that takes the fleet to Santa Barbara YC where they will relax for a
short stay. The event concludes with the 245nm SoCal 300 that will lead
them through the Channel Islands and down to San Diego, beginning on
Thursday May 31.

Since
the CORW is comprised of 3 offshore legs with an evening beer-can race
tossed in at Santa Barbara YC, the majority of the entrants will
participate in just one or two of the legs. In fact, there are eight
J/Teams all sailing in just the Spinnaker Cup Offshore race from San
Francisco Bay down to Monterey Bay.
